Grand Teton & Yellowstone 2008

May 28 - June 6, 2008.
We love exploring the National Parks and these two have been on our list for quite awhile. They did not disappoint!!
The scenery in Grand Teton is breathtaking! And Yellowstone is such an amazing array of fascinating geography and wildlife. The geysers, mudpots, hot springs, canyons...the bears, wolves, coyote, bison, elk and more, more and more!!
We bought a new Canon 70-300 lens for this trip and learned alot along the way. One thing we learned was that this lens was pretty small for Yellowstone! We saw people with some amazing camera equipment!! I see now how they get all those awesome wildlife shots.
This lens was not quite powerful enough for us to get the kind of shots I dreamed of, but we managed to get a few that are good enough for us to relive the memories of seeing these wonderful creatures roaming freely in the wild!!
We did get some really beautiful shots of some grizzly bears and wolves at the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone, MT. So, these shots come with an asterisk. *They were not taken in the wild* But it sure was incredible to be able to see these wonderful animals up close. This is a great Not-for-Profit Wildlife Park and Educational Facility. All the animals at the Center are unable to survive in the wild and serve as ambassadors for their wild counterparts. We really enjoyed our visit there and highly recommend it!
So, here are just some of our very favorite photos (and a few videos, too) from this fantastic trip through 2 of America's great National Parks.
Enjoy!!
